Santorini to Istanbul. September 8

Okay. So this is our worst day of the entire trip and if you are going to skip reading any blog, this is the one to miss. Total, absolute waste of a day and deadly boring.
It began with a 5.20am transfer (which was late) to Santorini airport (which is tiny by the way), where we waited in line for an hour for our line to open.
So we waited here for maybe 3 hours and got our plane to Athens airport, which was super short. And then we collected our bags. And then we waited in the arrivals area for 10 hours. TEN HOURS WITH OUR BAGS SRSLY.
We literally just ate breakfast, made a table from our bags, and watched shows on the computer. And maybe ate a McFlurry.

We finally got our plane to Istanbul and arrived there about an hour later than we had thought we would. So by the time we had got a taxi, explained to the driver where we were going, got lost, asked about 8 people on the street for directions and finally made it to the door of our airbnb apartment, it was about 10.30pm.
The husband of the lady who runs the airbnb welcomed us though, and was super understanding. He showed us around, gave us a bottle of wine and made sure everything was fine before leaving.
And then we went to sleep.

Love A&E
